According to Sky News “The British star caused outrage after revealing that one of her mottos is the phrase "nothing tastes as good as skinny feels" in a recent interview to fashion website WWD.” Apparently her actions have reignited the size zero debate with many accusing poor Kate of promoting the look.
Hmmmm, Sky I’m not outraged! Can no once sense that her remarks were made in jest? Christ, can no one make a joke anymore?
I’ve actually had the pleasure of meeting Ms Moss, well ok we were in the same room and never actually spoke but it’s the same thing. Anyway! I’m sure she wouldn’t mind me admitting a little detail about her, she is not a size zero! I know, shock horror. Also whilst she may not be in the running for Mother of the Year, Kate is a mum and do people really think that she would want to encourage such behavior to her child. So why are the press jumping on the band wagon to blame her, was there really nothing to write about in today’s press?There is no doubt that we are an image obsessed society. I too am part of this cattle run, I say this with my desk draw filled with protein and creatine in that never ending attempt at body perfection. I’m washing it all down today with my 3rd mince pie so I guess the six pack goal can wait another day.
Anyway, back to my point. Whilst celebs such as Kate do have influence over teenagers I don’t think we can attack them over ever joke they make. Especially to the extreme of every major newspaper, tv channel and tiny gay blog covering it! They are human after all.
So the question moving forward is what will her PR team conjure up to get her back on side with the press, hmmm perhaps she will take over from Fergie as the new face of Weight Watchers, after all "nothing tastes as good as skinny feels" was originally their tagline.
